Locality (statistics)

There are a variety of ways to measure the locale of a statistic. One way is to look at how often the statistic appears in different types of data sets.

Another way to measure locality is to use a distance metric between the statistic and its sampling location.

Distance measures can be based on Euclidean or Manhattan distances, or they can be based on some other function.
